PEPP 1 DS 1
What it is
How it works
General reference — not yet source-verifiedPick-and-place machines use a gantry system with placement heads that move along beams to pick components from feeder tracks and place them onto circuit boards with precision. The placement heads may use vacuum nozzles to handle components.
Where it fits in the process flow
General reference — not yet source-verifiedIn a surface-mount technology assembly line, the pick-and-place machine operates after solder paste has been applied to the circuit board and before the assembled board enters the reflow oven. The machine receives boards from an upstream conveyor and feeds them to a downstream conveyor after placement.
